Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chest radiographs and upright abdominal studies are typically performed with an upright cassette holder or Bucky to ensure proper alignment and positioning of the image receptor. A variable height table may be used for convenience, but is not necessary for these exams. A tilting radiographic table may be used for other types of exams, but is not typically used for chest or abdomen imaging. An interventional C-arm system with a fixed SID would not be appropriate for these exams as it is designed for interventional procedures, not standard radiography.
